Lumines Creator Leaves Q Entertainment For Professor Position At Keio University

Tetsuya Mizuguchi, the creator of Rez and more recently the Lumines series, left Q Entertainment. Mizuguchi and other ex-Sega staff opened Q Entertainment in 2003 and released Lumines for PSP a year later.

Mizuguchi is now a professor in Keio University’s graduate media design program. CEO Shuji Utsumi added Mizuguchi will also continue to support Q Entertainment as an advisor, but there are no concrete plans with Mizuguchi taking part in any games or synthesia projects.

Q Entertainment’s most recent game is a social romance game called SHINee My Love which features the Korean R&B group. They also released Guardian Hearts Online for PlayStation Vita.
